The Stearns History Museum will honor three Stearns County families in June by designating their farms as Century Farms.

The Museum’s Century Farm program recognizes the long history of Stearns County Farmers as stewards of the land and the tradition of passing down a way of life to family members. The three new Century Farms in Albany, Getty and Saint Joseph townships will mark the 35th anniversary of the program.

At each farm site, the Museum installs a brown, rustic stained wooden marker with white lettering attached to a treated wooden pole.
